Guitarist/Composer

In 2017 I was fortunate enough to receive a career development grant from the Australia Council for the arts. With this I undertook a 12 month mentorship with the incredible James Muller! It’s been such an incredible experience to study with one of my musical heroes. James is such an amazing musician and I have learned so much from the time spent with him. I can’t thank Australia Arts council enough for giving me this opportunity and to James for being on board for it all. I had a blast!

Throughout 2016 I’ve been performing regularly at The Homestead in Hobart with my quartet. The quartet features regular trio members, Hamish Houston and Rit Coomber as well as the incredible Danny Healy on sax. These have been really fun gigs and a great opportunity to develop new material. Look out for more performances through out 2017.

The trio returned to Melbourne in October to perform as part of the Melbourne Improvisers Collective at Uptown Jazz Cafe. Got a chance to play new material we’ve been working on and see some great gigs too. Joining me for the gig was Hamish Houston on bass and Rit Coomber on drums. Looking forward to playing again in Melbourne in 2017!

Just returned home from our gig at Lewboskis in Melbourne over the weekend. We had a blast playing and got a chance to try out some new compositions. Joining me for the gig was Hamish Houston on bass and Liam O’Leary on drums. Looking forward to playing in Melbourne again soon!

I’ve added a demo recording of a track of mine called Traveler that I recorded a while back with Hamish Houston – Bass and Rit Coomber – Drums.
It was recorded & mixed by Zarven Kara @ Reel to Reel Studios, December 2015, Margate, Tasmania.
I’ve added it to the listen page and you can also find it below:

We were very fortunate to be joined for some gigs by our good friend Spike Mason, a fantastic Sax player who lives in Tassie. Spike came down for our gig at the last Hot August Jazz Festival and joined us at our Sunday Jazz at MONA session. We hope to have him playing with us again through 2015, we had a blast!
